AMV produces software for Civil Engineering; specifically focused on structural design and analysis. HOOPS provides the graphics power behind MasterSAP, a structural design and analysis program which performs verifications for concrete, steel, timber and masonry. With HOOPS, MasterSAP is able to render even large building structures efficiently, including display of analysis results. Using HOOPS, AMV is able to deliver market-leading graphics at a fraction of the cost of developing code on their own. This strategy helps AMV keep prices down, hold margins up and retain their competitive advantage. Visit: www.amv.it > |
